As I posted previously, I've used the LetonPower lights in the past and found them REALLY good value.
Their new series has 2 lines; the Shark (high end) and the Seals (budget / value line)
I wanted a second set up for my son to use while we dive together and, knowing that he might not stick to the sport as long as I have, I wanted an inexpensive set up front for him. My wife will also use it when she dives with me.
I like the lights ability to have diffuse light, avoiding hotspots and an ability to reduce the lumen output so that the light is unobtrusive. One of the ways I most like to use lights is to make foreground subjects (i.e. Fish) stand out and 'pop' relative to the background. The lights, put on low accomplish that really nicely and without knowing, you'd never guess that lights were involved.
Here's an example
You can check out my other thread for the review of the Shark Series and so this short note is only to highlight differences that might not be apparent from the spec sheets.
Length - The SEAL lights are about 20% shorter than the SHARK series as you can see in this series of lights (SEAL In middle, flanked by two SHARK series)
The other noticable difference is in the diameter of the emitting head. The SEAL is a touch smaller than the SHARK series but (from memory) not as small as the Turbo S Pro. The SEAL CF (the model here) seems to have similar emitters to the SHARK CX (top of range) but fewer of them.
Nice lights, I like them and for the price, you can't go wrong
